Conan: The Barbarian #1

Conan: The Barbarian #1 (2023) kicks off with a thunderous start in "Bound in Black Stone Part 1: Scourge of the Dead," as Brissa arrives at Hauler's Roam with a dire warning—only to find the cursed army already upon them. With the village overrun, only Conan and Brissa manage to flee, setting the stage for a brutal journey into the unknown. Written by Jim Zub and brought to life by Roberto de la Torre’s dynamic art and José Villarrubia’s evocative colors, the issue’s cover by Dan Panosian captures the grim urgency of the moment.
